Mount Michener

Mount Michener is a 2,545-metre (8,350 ft) mountain on the eastern border of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta, Canada.

The mountain sits on the shore of Abraham Lake and its north, west and south face are all visible from the David Thompson Highway.

The mountain was named in 1982 after Daniel Roland Michener who was the Governor General of Canada from 1967 - 1974.

The pressure on the fault line caused thousands of metres of rock to thrust upward.

The contorted beds near the summit of Mount Michener are visible evidence of the tremendous force that caused its formation.
